Stealth

Unlike invisibility, stealth is considered a non-magic effect, in which characters are more careful to not be detected.

The key difference between the two effects is that stealth is not a binary effect - when you are invisible, a monster can either sense (and thus see you) you, or it can not (in which case it has no way to see you). Stealth, on the other hand, depends on several factors to determine whether another character can see you:

• Distance: the closer you are to the other character, the more likely it is to see you.
• Level difference: higher level characters are more skilled in seeing through the silly tricks of young whippersnappers, and will spot them from farther away.
• Stealth and focus enhancing skills (such as Eagle Eye) will also help in detecting stealthed characters.
